Re: Shobogenzo? I don't get it....

I just read an interview to Portuguese novelist Antonio Lobo Antunes and he stated there that:

"the books I like are those that start in me when I finish reading them... We, readers, open books with the key of our own experience, but every good book has its own key and teach yourself how to read it."

I'd say that Dogen texts are exactly like that. As long as they start something within us, we don't need to get everything.


For those of you who can read Spanish, here's the link to the interview to Lobo Antunes
